It would be nice with a "cleaner" solution though.
What kernel are you using?
Are you doing a lot of block IO as well?
I am using 2.6.11.8.
Yes, the server is a fileserver for both the internet (~10Mbit) and
internally (1Gbit e1000). Hardware is pretty old so is pretty heavily
loaded and with 256MB RAM.
OK, well there are some patches in 2.6.12 that should make
things slightly better, and then some more patches in -mm
(not sure if they'll make it for 2.6.12) that should make
things slightly better again.
Basically they work towards reducing the memory allocation
"priority" for block IO requests, in relation to networking
and other atomic allocation requirements.
If you can't test the latest -mm, or 2.6.12-rc4, then wait
for 2.6.12 and 2.6.13 and check back on the problem.
Thanks,
Nick
